This week, Hayley, Duncan and Tommy tune into the sounds of the past — from Sony Walkmans and clunky cordless phones to school disco slow dances and tuck shop treats.

What starts as a chat about forgotten gadgets soon unravels into stories of radio legends, first crushes, and those painfully awkward teenage moments that everyone remembers (but wishes they didn't). Expect laughter, nostalgia, and a few "did that really happen?" tangents along the way.

In This Episode:

Memories of talk radio icon Mike Dickin — and the myth of the flying telephone.

Retro gadgets: clunky cordless phones, beeping keyrings, floppy disks, and those iconic orange Walkman headphones.

Hayley's first TomTom sat nav — battery-hungry, slow, and full of attitude.

The gang jokes about saucy sat nav voices and questionable road-trip chat.

Tommy's stories of giant house keys, lockboxes, and life before digital security.

School discos: from Agadoo and Move Closer to China in Your Hand — complete with teenage nerves, dodgy dance moves, and clouds of Impulse body spray.

Duncan's proud slow-dance memory (and equally awkward aftermath).

Hayley's tuck shop favourites — cola cubes, flying saucers, and 10p mix-ups.

Tommy's DJ flashbacks — paid a fiver to play Feelings at the worst possible moment.

Highlights:

A nostalgic and hilarious trip through first loves, lost gadgets, and the sweet chaos of growing up in the 80s and 90s.
